Here's those demos My son Aaron and his friend Alex recorded: http://www.soundclick.com/notreadyforaliveaudience Shark Falconry is the name of their band. Not Ready For A Live Audience is a name for posting demos from Swampbilly Studio and Vance Ranch Studio. These demos were just something for the drummer, Jeff, to go by for writing his drum part. There's another member I haven't met yet, named Alvin, who's the other guitarist, front-man, and also a writer/arranger.

Both these songs are written by Alex Brewer and performed by him and my son, Aaron. This was the first time I've seen/heard them playing together. I told Aaron I liked his bass playing; he said, "I was mostly just playing the root, I haven't written bass lines for 'em yet." So much for my critical ear.

At one time, my innate professionalism precluded my accepting remuneration for rendering services in fields where I have no particular aptitude, but once I got a little hungry, I realized it was rather pretentious of me to hold myself to a higher standard than all the other professionals.

I thought some of the rif****e sounded a bit like something from **** Christ Superstar.

The instruments heard are a Carvin belonging to Carla (mahogany body & neck, with carved maple top, in a shape I call 'Paul Reed Strat), and Aarons Fender Jazz Bass, both plugged dirrectly into the UX1.

Alex doesn't even own a guitar right now, so Carla loaned him her Mexican Fat Strat to take with him. It's weird that someone can play like him having mostly used borrowed guitars. Carla and I don't have any talent much beyond the ability to loan guitars, so I guess it works out.

This has been here for like 2 years and I only just noticed it My apologies mate, it's awesome I like the galloping thing too. I could never make it sound that good though.Needs a real heavy hitting drummer. Think Tommy Lee
